The Great Buck Howard
A young law-school dropout answers an ad for a “personal assistant to a celebrity performer,” hoping it will catapult him to a glamorous career in the entertainment industry. Little does he know that the performer is a “mentalist” prima donna. infamous for his 61 appearances on The Tonight Show. In an inspired bit of casting, Tom Hanks plays Troy’s father, who ironically disapproves of show business, and Emily Blunt is the fiery publicist hired to stage the comeback of a lifetime.
